NTEN Office Hours is gearing up for Fall! We're looking forward to connecting more of you to the experts who can answer your nonprofit technology questions.

We had a great set of NTEN member volunteers hosting Office Hours this summer, and now we need you!

Though many of our summer hosts are returning, we're looking to expand the program this fall. So, we want you to share your expertise with the NTEN community. Learn more and sign up for Office Hours.

We can't guarantee you'll be able to answer every question that comes your way, but we can guarantee that you'll have some fun and meet some great people. Plus, you'll be making a great contribution to the NTEN community.
